Thanks Master Raidy,
So I guess I can run with the big dogs, Like I said this is just some tea bag fiber for mesh. When the S.S. mesh comes in I will get the coil just right.

Didn't you have a insect screen at your door ?
Yea, but it's plastic. The longer wire did help a lot too.
It still needs the SS mesh,,, because I am getting
,,,, I want

Looking good. I'm anxious to hear how it works with the mesh when you get it.
here it is, still look very unstable but work quite good. tonight i will make some new genesis
Cool, How does it taste? Is it a thick dry smoke or like mine a thick heavy mist?
Congratulations guys. Good job. I can't wait till my parts come all around the world.
great taste and clouds of vapor. as raidy said before, dont use much mesh for clouds
Must I insulated the wire which goes through reservoir tube? e-liquid is not conductive right?
Yes, you should, because the wire possibly can contact the screen. e-liquid ist not conductive (>5MOhm)
Ok. Thanks but if I put the screen in inox tube (as you said before) that was imposible.

Raidy, when you come back from holidays there will be many, many Genesis here I think.
Genesis epidemic. Can we call new atty's Genemic
?

Wow, I am overwhelmed by so much participation. And it looks realy good. Enjoy the new feeling.
Are you guys making these tubes and ends yourself or can you share where you are buying the parts from?
Thanks!

OK, Time for a Gummy rant:
I believe that the atomization process is way out of balance on mine with this tea bag wick. (no big surprise after all I am not using the recommended parts), but I wanted to play. So I will stop playing around with it until I get the proper mesh. I think that the droplet size is not small enough. Not to get to far into the physics but, the atomization balance is different for spray painting than it is for smoking. These droplets are just to big and wet. it is more like a mist than smoke, that's why there is no big cloud of exhale smoke. the big wet droplets are sticking inside the lungs. it's not dry enough. (not by much, it is close, it could only be the difference between .3 micron or .8 microns). so I am hoping that the SS wick will provide more mass to flash the droplets smaller, thus dryer.
Dr. Raidy has said that changing the mesh count changes the end product between strong throat hits or lots of vapor. What this is doing is changing the droplet size of the smoke. Altering the surface tension of the liquid controls the droplet size. This is constantly being altered in several ways. 1, viscosity of fluid. 2, energy. 3, quantity, (fluid flow rate, ie: wicking). Pressure doesn't really come into play with PVs.
We moders play with energy all the time with variable voltage units or different resistance of the atty.s. We use energy to adjust for the different viscosity of fluid (or subtle flavor additives, PG/VG and such) . Quantity is easily seen when an atty is flooded or dry, (either extreme will not taste good). But it plays a part in the volume of smoke produced. We see this a lot on the video reviews by watching someone blow out a ton of vapor when they exhale. (smaller droplet size= dryer vapor that doesn't stick to anything that it comes in contact with like my lungs or the air). It all goes back to how to alter the surface tension to find a balance that each of us would like. There is a happy balance that we all look for that's different for each of us and for different e-juices/flavor additives. ,,, and when we find it, damn it's soon gone, because one of those values just went out of balance.

Rjgarcia I spent some time with my south bend lathe this afternoon and turned the end caps for mine one is aluminum and the other is Teflon . Was fun I'm going to perfect the units when Raidy gives part 2 .
thanks for the interest And Raidy thanks for the complement on how it looks it vapes better than it looks .
